Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] follow-tcp

[Edgar Iglesias <edgar.iglesias@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Sometime ago I ran in to some problems with a large tcp trace.
I was using the follow-tcp plugin ( a great feature btw ) to
pull out the session between my two endpoints. It turns out
ethereal was producing incorrect output.

I checked out the cocde from your cvs repsoitory and did some
debugging. The problem is when reassembling tcp packets with
retransmitted data.

I would like to apply the following patch to correct the problem. 

Best regards,
Edgar Iglesias
